Im not rich. Dont think so i can go oversea.





My potential is that i think alot. Im very good at thinking the reason behind and consequences of something. What should i take? Im looking forward to my archievement at the age of after i graduate till 30. So i think i should now start doing research by asking PROS now. I've head that business can earn alot and financing too. My brother just graduated from UM ,he studies account. Now hes working in a company in KL central. Basic 1.8k. Is that low? I have high hope that when im 25,i should have high salary.

Advises are most welcome.

for those who're not financially able.. there're means to get scholarships at foreign universities..

i have had a few malaysian friends who got some scholarship assistance while studying abroad. it's limited and competitive.. but nonetheless, it's possible. thus you can use this avenue to study harder/smarter..

for those of you who expect to earn a pretty sum of money when they hit 25 years without much justification and understanding how profit, performance and compensation are interlink within a given organization can sometimes become disillusioned..

expectation is ok.. just know where to set it.

Don't forget:
Experienced Medical Doctors & Lawyers, all mostly above 5K, infact some even 10K.

well they really should at least earn more than 5k considering that their course itself costs more than 500k usually or maybe even 1m. If its less than 5k its not very good.

1m? lol r u kiddin?

the prob with doctor and lawyer are ppl study and work like hell. and they graduate late.
if u can spend the same money, time and effort on doing sales, study technical thing such as CCIE, or doing investment, u can easily beat them.

sure they can make a lot of money, but not at 25, they need to study longer compare with other and then serve in public hospital for a few year where the pay is not very good.

Actually I honestly don't think its good at all.

Lets take these assumptions to determine

course fees : RM750,000

Average salary : RM7,000/month

Rate of return : 5%

We assume a lump sump payment for course fee on year 0 and an average salary of beginning on year 6 of RM7,000 for simplicity in calculations.

Base on these assumptions it takes 218 months or about 18 years+ to break even. So you basically start making money when you are 36 years old. This is already assuming you don't fail on any of your semesters and have quite a decently high average of RM7,000/month.

8 months working experience, Salary 5k

studying medicine can be very expensive.. especially if you do it abroad and it's on self-funding.. pre-med, med and post-med schools in columbia univ or nyu.. can readily reach that rm1 million mark!

* note - both of these quoted univ is in new york, usa.

Anyone here has advises for me? Please read my Previous reply.

Well actually answers are all over this post I think. Well I have answers for you too but it depends how much preseverance you have, your interests and also your academic capabilities.

If you have high preseverance, interest in finance/market research/investments and am relatively strong academically, a combination of 2 of the below is a good choice.

Finance/Accounts/Economics/Marketing/Econometrics/Statistics

Then from there you can thread into research field. But just to let you know the hours are long and the number of jobs is very small. Well a rough estimate would be around 1000-2000 such jobs in KL.

But there are many many other choices out there so you should seek advice of other working people as well. Also try to see an academic counselour as well.

it depends on what field u working for, for sales ppl can get 5k even more than that, for engineering field unless u working in oil and gas industry, other wise it is very difficult to get 5k salary

heh this thread is good to read during tea break Reading the experience(gossips) shared (and having Old Town white coffee + D.Donuts )

What a good day! ^^

you are so pathetic.. in the sense, you should share your coffee and donuts with the rest

Sales? Marketing is it? I dont know much about marketing. How do i know whether im a marketing material ? My potential is that i think ALOT.

how u know u r not the material for sales n marketting? skill n experience are gained along the way....

Well, firstly, most employers don't consider 'thinking a lot' as potential. They consider it as... well... thinking a lot, which doesn't mean anything. I think 'adequate thinking' is expected of any employee. How can anyone work if they don't think enough? It's like breathing... everybody breathes and it's not an 'advantage' or 'potential' if you 'breathe a lot'.

But if you insist on highlighting it during interviews, then use a better term... like structured thinking process, or meticulous and methodical, or possessing framework or big picture thinking, circumspect... whatever. And be prepared with examples of how your 'exceptional' thinking process actually improved whatever task you were doing.

Erm, I suppose mastering your languages will be a good start. It'll help at any career you wish to go for.
